    Why would it stop people from buying pearls?

    Are people more likely to buy tickets for an event where half the prizes are useless, or for an event where they’re almost guaranteed to get something useful at the end?

    Don’t forget, even if you’re a huge spending whale, that doesn’t mean you have the time or skill to complete the event multiple times (it’s a long grind). So Rovio should maximise profits for the first complete. That means getting more people to play and spend on finishing the event once, which people will do if they like the prizes.

    Something like that. Or it could be 10 perks, and a bunch of crates that each contain one out of four (a bit like the offer crates in the shop). So if you’re a Shooter, you don’t have to choose the one that’s 3/4 greens, and if you’re a Fixer you might like that one.

    My idea.

    Each time you claim rewards, you can temporarily "remove" a perk from the list. The removal itself can be done by using pearls, for example:
    • Uncommon - 10 pearls
    • Rare - 25 pearls
    • Epic - 50 pearls
    • Legendary 100 pearls
    Before each time you claim rewards, the list resets so there are all 4 perks, so if you don't want one specific perk again, you have to remove it again.
    People's chances to get what they want each time they claim the rewards could increase from 1/4 to 1/3. Devs get the money from buying pearls. Fair on both sides.

    Random situations:
    I really don't want that green item perk, so at my legendary round, I spend 100 pearls to remove it to make sure I haven't worked my ass off the whole weekend for something I have no use for.
    I really do want that grenade perk, so at rare, epic and legendary rounds I spend pearls to increase my chance to get it. I should get it on either of those.
    I don't care, I could equip all the perks so I won't spend anything.
    I don't want any of them, so why bother.

    or RNG choose 2 perks randomly and let you choose one of them and 4C2= 6 so you will have 1/6=16% chance to get the perk you want (that if there is one you want) , but it will be better if there were 5 perks 5C2=10 so you will have 10% chance to get the perk you want it is less but you will have less chance of getting all useless perks for an entire event

    edit : it is 3×1/6 so it is 50% chance , and fro the second one it is 4×1/10 so it is 40%chance to get the perk you want

    Exactly if it is random then you just have bad luck. Its not rigged.

    Nice solution. What if we see if the perk was red, green, yellow or blue type before we start. This would stop players from wasting too much time on getting an useless perk but still have a little bit of mystery to keep people playing.

    why did everyone decide that the legendary perk needed to be extracted so simply in 2-3 days? and exactly the one you need, srsly?
    I remind you, this is the legendary top-end perk!
    alot of players can not collect an epic perk for several months, and you want everything at once, lol!
    and you forgot to say thanks to the developers, because the event turned out to be fun! you are impudent.

    Who do i play events for? To get edge over the players who dont.

    I m a hardcore player, Event -2 i grind for 6 hours straight.What did i get? Same 3 perks of a weapon i dont even use (Mine perks) .Why should i be happy for getting handed the junk that i dont even use (THRICE)

    The RNG of current system is not Random at all.It keeps giving you one single perks serially without changing it

    The hardwork and the grind required for these events,especially event-2.Ask any good player

    I don't have any desire for Legendary perk.But atleast RNG could be made more random to give variable perks Or give chance to a player to choose Rare perk of his/her choice

    @Ash KOT curious how many Legendary perks did you grind for?
    None of those gambles makes you feel useless...

    What worst can you get from raffle? powercells.Believe me its precious for many players.Also its just 3500 tokens worth,24K token can can earned in within an hour of questing board 1

    Combining items? Whats the worst weapons,std mortar.Well! Any epic T5 or Legendary T1 is good enough to be usable.Or at least serves purpose for quests or gives Good amount of part,piece and powercells.

    Also the Chance of earning other epic weapons comes atleast twice/thrice a month

    Same about opening crates.

    So far with new perks the only use i have managed to find is getting gold for scrap with the amount of time and difficultly consumed to gain them is ridiculous.

    Would The perks appear again in near future and would get something you wont? Highly doubtful

    As for crates/piece combine or raffle the chance offered to beat your badluck are fairly good

    Also the achievements gives guaranteed Legendary and epic of your choice? Not so much luck,is it?

    With a dice with 6 sides you can see that receiving repeated numbers is pretty common ;) Imagine with one of 4 sides

    1- Thankful for what? This is a business for them. We owe them nothing nor they owe us anything.

    2- We are not forced to spend money because you create money for them by watching adds.

    There is a thing called 50/50 raffle. 50 % chance to win the prize. I saw it recently at a baseball game. People paid cash for the half chance to win some more cash. By end of game. $50,000 had been spent by fans to hope to win more money.

    If Rovio really wants to capitize on these events. Have 6 perks to choose from. 2 in each collumn. A player when they start the event selects A, B or C collumn.
    And by selecting it. They know they have a 50% Chance to get the perk they want.

    This will drive massive revenue to Rovio for tickets. While Players will feel system is fairer to receiving the perk they want.
    If this system was in place I know many players in my guild of Rebellion that would have dropped $100 for 14,000 pearls and played non stop. Whereas...current system. The most anyone in our guilld spent last event was $20. I bet more people will spend to get what they want. Or increase their odds to something they want.
    Because multiple choice 4 of random is not as good. 25% verses....having 2 choices 50% And selecting which perks column you will receive. Giving players the choices opens up the wallet to spend.

    @The Grim Repair

    The Sharks says give the people what they want.
    And make some $$$$.

    Win-win
